MSQC Forum
The MSQC Forum is an email-based discussion group intended for SCQRs to discuss and exchange ideas, experiences, opinions and questions related to MSQC’s mission, including, but not limited to, quality improvement initiatives, best practice, and general operational issues.
All SCQRs will be added to the MSQC Forum automatically. Forum membership is limited to SCQRs and MSQC’s Coordinating Center staff only.
The MSQC Forum works just like regular email. Use your regular email service provider to send, receive, read and reply to MSQC Forum messages.
